"Would love to come. Small matter of a big pond in the way.
Not much going on behind you in the shot and the low shadows make it look quite early in the morning. Hope you didn't wake the neighbours. Oh, what the hell. Have a good one."

dogfinger steve said… - cheers johnny, the mics one of me grandads old pipe baccy tins (his pipe used to stink the house out so thought it'd do something for my vocals) with the mouthpiece piezo from an old corded telephone (beige and 50p from car boot) wired to a jack and put thru a little pignose amp with distortion on. gives a great lo fi sound and harp sounds cool thru it too.
